Lemon is a frequent guest on our table. We add it to tea, use lemon juice to make salad dressings, sauces, mayonnaise. We use lemon in baking, add it to the preparation of first and second courses.

Lemons are high in vitamin C, which boosts the immune system. Lemon also increases appetite, lowers cholesterol levels, and is a tonic. Lemon peel is an excellent antibacterial agent.
In this regard, we often buy lemons. But sometimes we do not use the whole lemon at one time and the question arises how to store it so that it does not dry out, does not deteriorate, does not rot and retains the maximum amount of its vitamins until the next time!
Recipes with Lemon
Step 1
For work, we need 1 lemon, a knife, a saucer, a kitchen board.
Step 2
The lemon should be cut from the place where the stalk was attached, in slices towards the spout (the place where the flower was attached). When laying out for storage, the juice will go up to the spout and the cut will remain dry.
Step 3
The rest of the lemon is laid out on a small saucer with the spout up so that the slice does not adjoin the saucer (it should rest with its edges on the rim of the middle of the saucer). We put the cut lemon in the refrigerator and use as needed.
Step 1
For work, we need a lemon, a knife, a kitchen board, water, a glass with a narrowed bottom.
Step 2
We cut the lemon from the “butt” to the “nose” in slices as needed.
Step 3
Pour a small amount of water into a glass with a narrowed bottom. We choose a glass in which the lemon can hang, holding onto the walls of the glass.
Step 4
Place the sliced lemon, cut side down, in the glass so that the slice does not touch the water. We store in the refrigerator.
Step 1
For work, we need a lemon, a knife, a kitchen board, a canape skewer, a saucer.
Step 2
We cut the lemon from the buttocks into slices towards the spout. We leave such a slice, which on the one hand without the pulp of the lemon, and on the other hand the pulp is already visible. Set aside the chopped lemon.
Step 3
With the help of a canape skewer, we tightly attach the set aside slice to the remaining lemon, covering all the pulp of the lemon with it.
Step 4
We spread the lemon on a plate and send it to the refrigerator for storage.
Step 1
To save a lemon, we need a saucer, table vinegar (2 tablespoons), a knife, a kitchen board, a glass.
Step 2
Lemon should be cut into slices from the bottom towards the spout.
Step 3
Moisten the saucer in the "hole" well with vinegar.
Step 4
Lay the lemon slice down so that it does not touch the bottom of the plate, but rests with its edges on the rim of the middle of the plate. Cover with a glass on top. Keep refrigerated.
